Girls Basketball: Paint Branch 85, Einstein 18

Paint Branch High School sophomore Daisa Harris had a game-high 24 points, single-handedly outscoring her former team as the Panthers cruised to an 85-18 win over visiting Einstein on Tuesday. Harris started at point guard for the Titans as a freshman but transferred to Paint Branch earlier this year.

Senior forward Erin French scored 14 points and Kiara Colston added 12 for the Panthers (2-1), who will travel to face Richard Montgomery on Thursday.

Daiana Cadlett led Einstein (0-3) with 9 points. The Titans, who have lost their first three games of the season by a combined score of 200-53, will open their Montgomery 3A/2A conference schedule on the road against Northwood on Monday.
